letter book, correspondence about the 1824 bankruptcy of Ware & Gibb, and
copies of letters from the firm's trustees. There are also several accounting
and financial records, including a general ledger, invoices, receipts,
promissory notes, lists of creditors and cheques. In addition, account books
document the monetary transactions of Ware & Gibb between 1822 and 1826.
Several proceedings also reveal the legal actions taken against the business
following its bankruptcy.
